Maryamie: Xbox

I beat Feeding Frenzy on Xbox 360! Yay!

Forgive me while I jump up and down and do a victory dance! I've never beat any games on the Xbox. I beat Feeding Frenzy! I seriously think it's because I love eating so much these days and this game is about a fish who keeps eating little fish and avoids big fish until it gets bigger and can eat the big fish too! Love playing it. I told you I am eating everything that doesn't eat me :)

I am stuck on level 9 in Zuma for now. I am also on level 9 in Bejeweled. Also started playing Pacman, Ms. Pacman, Rootbeer Tapper too. What games are you playing?

Problems with Xbox live Customer Service? Blog about it!

The Xbox live Customer service is giving my friend David in Ireland no service even though he has three accounts with them. That's a great way of taking care of your loyal customers. Charge them up the kazoo and then screw them. I love the lines every one he talked to gave him: "We are very sorry we can't help you." Really? I think if you tried you could.

I am sorry you are having such a hard time with the Xbox Customer Service (or lack there of) David. As I mentioned in the comments, I guess the only positive side is that it got you blogging. Welcome to the blogging world David.

The Xbox Comments

Fri, 28 Apr 2006 06:03:49 GMT

Comment heard in the Scoble living room from Trevor, Patrick’s friend, yelling at Robert while raising the Xbox controller and pointing to the Ridge Racer game currently being played on the Xbox: “THIS IS THE FIFTH TIME YOU LOST TO A TEN YEAR OLD DUDE. HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL MR. ADULT?”

Comment heard in the Scoble living room from Patrick, my stepson, while shaking his head and looking at his step Mom and Father fighting over the Xbox controls, around midnight on a week night: “You guys are losers.” and a few minutes later: “Hey, give me those controls. It’s my turn.”

Comment heard from my eight year old nephew while pretending to faint of happiness, upon inheriting our original Xbox and its games for his birthday: “Nobody gets an Xbox and all these games for his birthday. Wow! I can’t believe this. Someone hold me before I faint.”

Comment heard from Patrick upon seeing Kian receive the original Xbox: “He doesn’t look that excited. I told you, you should have given it to me.”

Comment heard from Maryam upon seeing her husband's disappointed look while searching for food in the kitchen after coming home from work: "Sorry honey. Didn't have a chance to make dinner, but I am on stage 9 of Zuma and I just got my fourth achievement. Aren't you proud of me?"

Robert's comments upon hearing that will not be repeated here :)

I am a Zuma Monster!

First of all don't buy the Xbox 360. If you do buy the Xbox 360, don't download the Zuma game. If you download the Zuma game, don't start playing it. Because if you start palying it, you can't let it go and like me you'll become addicted and there is no hope for you. You walk around the house shouting Chucka Zula Zuma and every chance you get you turn the Xbox on and feed your Zuma habit.

I haven't let Robert touch the Xbox since we got it. I am stuck on stage 5, there is 13 stages. Posting maybe iffy for a while until I get my Zuma habit under control. I love that frog. Zuma Zuma Zuma!
